Dimitri Costa is a lecturer and researcher with eight years' experience applying control theory, nonlinear dynamics, and smart materials to energy harvesting and vibration mitigation. He progressed from PhD research on smart-structure control to international roles including a visiting post at Georgia Tech and multiple research fellowships at the University of Aberdeen, where he now lectures. His work spans delayed-state control, vibro-impact devices, and active vibration control with practical ties to drill-string operations and experimental impact oscillators. Dimitri blends hands-on experimental design (including beamline automation and polarimeter development) with theoretical modelling, making him adept at turning complex dynamics into deployable systems. He holds a PhD and MEng in Mechanical Engineering and a background in robotics and physical engineering, giving him a rare mix of control theory, experimental hardware, and applied mathematics.
